    Anyone know where I can get that army logo on a shirt?

      Good point Phil!!

      Wow!! I hate to say it...but this is good to see! Knowing Doobie is over there and has THAT kind of protection around, just a radio call away...

      It's so easy to say how wrong it is unless you've been there. When it comes down to thinking that you or your fellow soldiers' lives are at risk...you gotta react quick!

      I want Doobie and all the rest of our soldiers back in one piece.

          That aint AC130 footage. The ROF is too slow for the 20MM cannons they carry, its too fast for the 40mm guns, and it sure as hell aint a 105mm. Plus, if it were a spectre, the viewpoint would rotate around the target as the plane orbited. Those are most definately from an Apache, and that sure as hell looks like rounds from its 30mm chaingun.

            Very true. Either way, I felt a strong itch to play Desert Combat after seeing it.

                  Lol, that just struck me funny. But yeah, war is war. Shoot or be shot, no reset buttons. This kind of video gives me more respect for the American Armed Forces (although I'm Canadian, eh!). I hope all the American troops come back healthy and in one piece, god speed!
